recommended to use SD/SDHC cards with this feature. The available recording time depends on the capacity of the 
memory card. Videos can be recorded until the maximum memory capacity has been reached. However the length of 
a single video clip is limited to 4 GB. To increase the recording length, lower the video quality settings (See page 26 
for details).Power on the...

Using the Stabilizer Feature
The Stabilizer feature is for Photo taking only. This feature is designed to help reduce the blurring effects on photos 
caused by slight camera movement. It is important to note that this feature cannot compensate for all movement 
and lighting situations and that in many cases may slow the camera’s ability to auto focus. 
How does it work? It works according to the luminance of the target object. This function uses special image data 
processing to optimise the high...

This would be used to capture a dimly lit background while keeping the foreground (subject) properly lighted. This 
flash mode forces the camera to use a slower shutter speed in combination with the flash. The flash fires briefly to 
light the foreground (subject) while capturing ambient light to reveal more detail in the background. If Slow Sync 
flash is not used, the background may appear black or underexposed.
  Forced off. 
The flash is turned off and will not fire regardless of the...

 Pan Focus.
This mode is designed to accurately focus on a desired subject so that closer and further objects are out of focus. 
For example, the camera might focus on a nearby tree, and the distant trees and mountains are blurry, as well as an 
even closer object such as a flower. 
  Infinity.
When Infinity is set, the camera focuses on distant objects. This may be good to use when taking landscape photos.
